Benefits of technology

[0020]The present invention can provide a (meth)acrylic resin composition from which a film having excellent chemical resistance (in particular, Coppertone (registered trademark) resistance) can be obtained. Also, when the acid value of the resin composition is controlled, a film also having improved alkali resistance can be produced.
[0021]Furthermore, when the melt viscosity of the resin composition is controlled, moldability is improved, and, thus, a film having a good appearance can be produced.DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0022]The present invention relates to a (meth)acrylic resin composition and an imidized (meth)acrylic resin composition. In the present invention, “(meth)acrylic-based resin” refers to an acrylic-based resin and / or a methacrylic-based resin.
[0023]The (meth)acrylic resin composition of the present invention is obtained by heating a (meth)acrylic-based resin (C), wherein the (meth)acrylic-based resin (C) is obtained by polymerizing a monomer mixture (A) in the presence of an alkyl acrylate-based crosslinked elastic particle (B).
[0024]The acrylic acid ester-based crosslinked elastic particle (B) of the present invention is obtained by copolymerizing 0.5 to 5 parts by weight of a polyfunctional monomer having two or more non-conjugated double bonds per molecule, with respect to 100 parts by weight of a monomer mixture (b) containing 50 to 100 wt % of alkyl acrylate monomer and 0 to 50 wt % of alkyl methacrylate monomer, in one or more stages (the monomer constituent materials or the reaction conditions can be adjusted so as to perform multi-stage copolymerization). It is more preferable that the monomer mixture (b) contains 60 to 100 wt % of alkyl acrylate monomer and 0 to 40 wt % of alkyl methacrylate monomer. It is preferable that the alkyl methacrylate monomer is contained in a ratio of 50 wt % or less in view of the folding resistance of a molded product or a film that can be formed from the obtained (meth)acrylic resin composition.
[0025]It is preferable that the alkyl acrylate, alkyl methacrylate, and other reactive monomers of the monomer mixture (b) used in the crosslinked elastic particle (B) have an alkyl group with 1 to 12 carbon atoms in view of the polymerization reactivity or the cost. Specific examples thereof include methyl methacrylate, ethyl methacrylate, propyl methacrylate, n-butyl methacrylate, methyl acrylate, n-butyl acrylate, and the like. These monomers may be used alone or in a combination of two or more types.

Problems solved by technology

However, conventional acrylic films do not have sufficient chemical resistance, thermal resistance, hardness, folding resistance, and whitening-upon-folding resistance, which are properties needed for these applications.
However, this resin is very brittle, and, thus, there is a problem in which, when the resin is formed into a film and used to laminate a base material, the folding resistance of the film, which is needed as a property for such treatment, is poor.
In the case where a large amount of acid anhydride groups are contained as in this resin, resistance to an organic solvent and the like is excellent, but there is a problem in that the resistance to an aqueous alkali solution and the like becomes poor.

[0166]After the internal portion of the polymerizer was purified sufficiently with nitrogen gas so that oxygen was not substantially present, the internal temperature was set to 60° C., and 20 parts of the monomer mixture functioning as the starting material of the acrylic acid ester-based crosslinked elastic particle (B) shown in C1-1 in Table 1 (i.e., a monomer mixture comprising 2.1 parts of AlMA and 0.2 parts of CHP with respect to 100 parts of a monomer mixture comprising 90% of BA and 10% of MMA) were added continuously at a rate of 10 parts / hour. After the addition, the polymerization was allowed to continue for 0.5 hours, and an acrylic acid ester-based crosslinked elastic p...

Abstract

The present invention provides a (meth)acrylic resin composition comprising a carboxylic acid group produced by heating a (meth)acrylic-based resin (C), wherein the (meth)acrylic-based resin (C) is obtained by polymerizing a monomer mixture (A) containing 80 to 99 wt % of a linear alkyl (meth)acrylate and 1 to 20 wt % of tertiary-butyl(meth)acrylate, in the presence of an acrylic acid ester-based crosslinked elastic particle (B) that is obtained by mixing and polymerizing 0.5 to 5 parts by weight of a polyfunctional monomer having at least two non-conjugated double bonds per molecule, with respect to 100 parts by weight of a monomer mixture containing 50 to 100 wt % of an alkyl acrylate monomer and 0 to 50 wt % of an alkyl methacrylate monomer. This composition can be used to produce a film having excellent chemical resistance (in particular, sun-screening agent resistance).

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to a (meth)acrylic resin composition, an imidized (meth)acrylic resin composition, and a film obtained by molding them.BACKGROUND ART[0002]Recently, in the market, there is a strong interest in films having excellent chemical resistance, thermal resistance, hardness, folding resistance, and whitening-upon-folding resistance. Specifically, they are used, for example, as films used to laminate vehicle interior or exterior parts as a coating substitute, films used as a floor material, and the like. However, conventional acrylic films do not have sufficient chemical resistance, thermal resistance, hardness, folding resistance, and whitening-upon-folding resistance, which are properties needed for these applications.[0003]Polyglutarimide obtained by treating an acrylic-based resin with an imidizing agent, thereby introducing an imide group into a high-molecular weight chain, is known as a resin that can be provided with chemical resistan...
